Modifying your motorcycle or using non-

motorcycle unsafe. Before you consider
making any modifications or adding an
accessory, be sure to read the following
information.
ACCESSORIES & MODIFICATIONS
îMake sure that the accessory does not
obscure any lamps, reduce ground
clearance, limit suspension travel or steering
travel, affect your riding position or interfere
with operating any controls.
îBe sure electrical equipment does not
exceed the motorcycle's electrical system
capacity (page 3). A blown fuse can cause
a loss of lights.
îDo not pull a trailer or sidecar with your
motorcycle. This motorcycle was not
designed for these attachments, and their
use can seriously impair your motorcycle's
handling.
Modifications
Removing or modifying your lamps, mufflers,
emission control system or other equipment
can also make your motorcycle illegal.
We strongly advise you not to remove any
original equipment or modify your motorcycle
in any way that would change its design or
operation. Such changes could seriously
impair your motorcycle's handling, stability
and braking, making it unsafe to ride.
Accessories
îImproper accessories or modifications can
cause a crash in which you can be seriously
hurt or killed.
îFollow all instructions in this owner's manual
regarding accessories and modifications.
WARNING
îAlways lock the steering and never leave the
key in the ignition switch .
îPut your name, address and phone number
in this Owner's Manual and keep it in your
motorcycle at all times.
ANTI-THEFT TIPS
îPark your motorcycle in a locked garage
whenever possible.
îUse an additional anti-theft device of good
quality.
îMany times stolen motorcycles are identified
by information in the Owner's Manuals that
are still with them.

îHealthy Engine: The engine is the lifeline of every vehicle. To keep it healthy, it should be
tuned regularly, which will also help reduce pollution and improve vehicle performance &
fuel efficiency.

defective mufflers, excessive noise will cause headaches and discomfort.
îRegular Servicing: Get your motorcycle serviced at an Authorised Hero MotoCorp
workshop, as per the service schedule, for an optimum performance and keep the emission
level under check.
îEmission Pollution: Get emission of your motorcycle checked by authorised agencies atleast
once every 3 months or as notified by the government from time to time.
îFuel Saving & Reduce Pollution : Switch "OFF" the engine while waiting at traffic signal
points to save fuel and reduce pollution, if the waiting period is long.
îGenuine Engine Oil: Hero 4T Plus SAE 10W 30 SL grade (JASO MA2) engine oil
recommended by Hero MotoCorp and make sure you change it every 6000 kms. (with top
up every 3000 kilometres) to keep the engine fit and environment healthy.
îGenuine Spares: Always insist on Hero MotoCorp genuine parts as spurious or
incompatible spares and accessories can upset or deteriorate your motorcycle’s running
condition.
